"I want to meet him"
"Huh?"
His father sighed.
"I want to meet the boy, bring him over"
Phichit was conflicted. If he was to bring Paitoon here, will he be welcomed or humiliated?
"I don't think that's a good idea" he says.
"Why? Are you afraid we'll ruin your relationship?"
"It's not that, he....he hasn't accepted me to be his lover yet"
Sirichai released a hearty laugh. His son was just like him, that's how he ended up with Sirikit but unfortunately they divorced, he then sighed.
"Fine, but the day he becomes your lover i want him over for dinner, if he makes you happy we'll let you be, if not.....you two will have to separate"
A lump formed on his throat, why would his own father say that but he agreed nonetheless.
"Deal....what brings you here anyways?"
Sirichai shrugged and looked around his son's room.
"I came to check up on you, also i miss being here, the hotel room is....boring"
"It's your house, we can avoid each other easily in this big house"
He chuckled at the remark.
"I know....anyways let's go have dinner, i have to leave after that"
Phichit sighed, he could tell that his father wanted to come back home, the problem was with his mother, would she accept him back after the secret divorce?

Paitoon sighed as he laid in bed, after his slip earlier on he had lost his appetite. With his phone in his hand he scrolled through his Facebook timeline and could see his former classmates talking about the stress of school.
He admits he misses that but now, he has to focus on earning money to survive, that's how life it was for him, no money, no life.
He was about to place the phone on the nightstand when it vibrated
P'PHICHIT- hey, you still awake?
He smiled and laid back on the bed.
PAITOON- still awake, what's up?
P'PHICHIT- i miss you :(
He felt heat rush to his face in a second. He was....missed?
PAITOON- really? I can't say the same
P'PHICHIT- you hurt me nong ( ̄_ ̄) can i stop by tomorrow morning?
PAITOON- mn...bring me candy
P'PHICHIT- anything for you♡
He blushed and placed the phone on the nightstand, what was the emoji for. He then feels warm and fuzzy inside, could it be that.....he was developing feelings for Phichit?
A smile formed on his face as he closed his eyes.
"Good night.....P'Phichit"
───※ ·❆· ※───
The following morning, Paitoon had prepared a snack box for Phichit, it had an omelet, rice and a desert.
He normally doesn't do this but he wants to show his appreciation for Phichit. The sound of the car horn outside made his heart skip a beat.
He fixed his messy hair and went outside, the morning breeze however had other plans, it blew his ridiculously oversized tshirt over his head making him squeak in surprise.
Phichit tensed for a moment as he took in Paitoon's body, his skin looked creamy and soft, he wasn't well built but he wasnt chubby either, he was....perfect.
He cleared his throat once Paitoon was in front of him with a red face.
"Good morning"
He smiled.
"Good morning Paitoon, how are you holding up?"
He shrugged, there were moments where he felt like his mother was in the house with him and then sometimes it just gets cold and lonely.
"I don't know yet, i made you something" he says smiling shyly.
Phichit smiled warmly looking inside the lunchbox.
"Thank you, now i can save money on lunch" he joked.
"Yeah....your friends came here by the way, they left your textbook"
"Don't worry about it, I'll come for it later"
Paitoon nodded with shy eyes, he was coming back again, if he were a girl he would be squealing right now.
"You should head to school"
"Wait....can i ask for something?"
He tilted his head to the side making Phichit swoon over him.
"Can....can i have a kiss?"
Paitoon's eyes widened hearing that, a k-kiss?
"K-kiss?" He stuttered.
"Mn...on the cheek though, it's okay if you don't want to"
Phichit didn't want to pressure Paitoon, he wants to do everything by the book to make sure Paitoon sees that his feelings for him a true and genuine.
After a moment in thought, Paitoon built up enough courage to pull Phichit by the hem of his blazer and plant his lips on his cheek.
Once he pulled away Phichit was shocked, he meant him kissing Paitoon....but he doesnt mind this one. He smiled.
"Thank you, do you also want one?"
He saw Paitoon blush and meekly nod his head yes. He chuckled and kissed his cheek, he could smell his lotion, cocoa butter.
"I'll see you after school"
Paitoon nodded with a smile.
"I look forward to it"
───※ ·❆· ※───
"Ohoo look at how he's smiling, did you get some?" Preed teased.
The three as usual were gathered at Phichit's desk, he sighed yet he still kept his smile.
"I kissed him this morning"
"Oooiii this glow all because of a kiss? I can't wait to see how you'll glow when he-"
A hand was placed on Earth's mouth shushing him. Preed sighed and pulled him away to their seats.
"You two should get married" Phichit says, but his friend's clapback knocks the wind out of his lungs.
"After you"
───※ ·❆· ※───
Paitoon was at the temple, today was the final day of the funeral rights, it was his final day to say goodbye to his mother's soul.
Someone knelt beside him with incense in hand, they both stayed silent and prayed until the afternoon.
He stood up and made his way back home, Phichit was coming to see him again.
"Hey Nong, no greeting this time?" Gan says with a smirk. He gave him an apologetic smile.
"Didn't see you there, my mind is elsewhere"
"I understand, do you want me to take you home?"
"Nah I'm good, sorry for not talking to you back there"
"It's okay Nong, go home, get some rest"
The walk back home turned out to be a great way to let Paitoon think through his life.
He was now flirting with a boy he met just two days ago, he quit school and now has to find a job, a chuckle escaped his lips.
"I can't believe my life turned out to this"
